as anybody sampled the food

They have a big marquee thing where you can get cheese/ham baguettes. Mmmm. I think payment is made with tokens aswell, i.e. you buy tokens and exchange them for beer/baguettes etc.

And they have a Creperie! Nutella !!

Churros!

Forget the food at the ground.

We went back into Perpignan to Bar Le Source and the owner stuck on some very nice, cheap steaks for us all and dished several bowls of chips for us to enjoy.

Nice guy is Eric!

Le Grande Café de la Bourse does the best spaghetti carbonara I've ever tasted anywhere. Can't remember what it cost, but it wasn't expensive.

And I've had seriously good quiche at Le Grande Café de la Post too.

croque monsieur there is very nice indeed !!
and bar le source is cracking too

The first time that we went to Perp we were invited to a Friday night at the St Esteve club to which, unfortunately, a group of Leeds p1sshead supporters tagged along, they'd sat outside various bars drinking all day long as that was the purpose for their three day trip - I'm sure we've all seen the same from all SL clubs when they visit there.

Anyhoo, said p1ssheads (who were all middle aged I hasten to add so as not to tar the younger p1ssheads who also tag along on Rhinos trips), stood at the bar abusing the barman for a while until one of them bought a round and tried to work out how much he was being charged for the half litre glasses he was buying.

Of course to him it was a pint, it wasn't, it was half a litre, but he was convinced it was a pint and so kicked up a fuss at being charged three euros "for a pint".

The argument was settled when a quarter litre glass was produced which actually looks much better value because its bigger than a British half pint, whereas the half litre glass looks more like a pint.

The barman tried to explain that the quarter litre glass was half of the half litre glass but that they charged two euros for the quarter litre - the morons were having none of it, it looked like a big half pint so they bought a dozen of the quarter litres instead of six half litres and paid 6 euros more than they should have - they were delighted and tried to explain their clever scam to everyone - we were all too busy laughing.

What lovely a stereotype we portray to our French friends. Drunken and Thick.
